A Japanese fishing vessel swept away by the March 2011 tsunami
has been spotted adrift off the west coast of Canada.

An aircraft patrolling the seas off British Columbia saw the 15m
(50ft) vessel seen floating 275km (170 miles) from the Haida Gwaii
islands on Friday.

The question is will anything else turn up like this?

A better question is "What is Gwaii going to make out of it?"

I remember he posted pictures of a bottle he found on the beach and said something to the effect of "not long before more starts washing up."
